This document provides information about Filipino literature during the Japanese Period from 1941 to 1945. It discusses how writers in English began writing in Filipino during this time. Literature flourished with plays, poems, and short stories often focusing on life in the provinces. Poetry themes included nationalism, faith, country, religion, arts, and love. There were three main types of poems: Haiku, which followed a specific syllable structure and allegorical meaning; Tanaga, which was also short but had rhyme and measure; and the usual form without strict structures. Examples of each type are provided with English translations.
